Much as the Broncos would like to avoid distractions as they get ready for their playoff run, they’re coming, anyway.

And they’re coming soon, in the form of Black Monday.

All 32 NFL teams will play their final game of the 2012 season today and by most accounts, anywhere from nine to 12 head coaches could fired next week. Many of those pink slips will be delivered Monday.

And once those head coaching vacancies become available, Broncos coordinators Mike McCoy and Jack Del Rio figure to be at the top of several candidates lists.

If the Broncos defeat the Kansas City Chiefs Sunday to secure a first-round AFC playoff bye, McCoy, who runs the Broncos’ offense, and Del Rio, who is in charge of Denver’s defense, would be avaliable to interview for head coaching positions next week.
